The number of vehicles stolen in the UK has risen alarmingly in the past few years. This is due to thieves taking parts that are highly sought-after and then selling them off or using them to build their own cars. This is why it is vital to secure your vehicle with the latest anti-theft technologies like the Ghost immobiliser tracker. This device is different from the traditional security systems for cars. Instead of relying upon an alarm system or a key fob, it connects directly with the ECU and CAN network to stop your vehicle from beginning. It can also be paired with GPS tracking devices to make it difficult for thieves to steal your vehicle.
The device is a non-visible small, discrete device that you install into the engine compartment of your vehicle. It connects to the vehicle's CAN network and generates an unique code that can only be used to start your vehicle. This means that a burglar will require your PIN number in order to get the vehicle to start, which stops them from attempting to steal your vehicle.
It is also unnoticeable by thieves, since it doesn't emit radio signals, and relies on the buttons that are already present on the steering wheel and dashboard of the vehicle. It can be put in place without affecting the warranty of your vehicle or cutting any circuits. You could even transfer it to another vehicle if you decide to purchase a new car later.
This technology is especially effective in areas that have an extremely high rate of vehicle theft since it deters thieves from trying to steal your car. It can also be combined with GPS tracking devices to help you locate your vehicle after it's been stolen.

The thieves can't see you.
The device seamlessly integrates into the vehicle's electronic systems. It creates a PIN code that you enter using the buttons on your dashboard or wheel. This makes it impossible for anyone to guess. Once entered correctly, only the driver can start the car, preventing keyless entry and relay thefts.
Because it's so nebulous, it's virtually impossible to be detected by thieves using sophisticated scanners or radio frequencies. The device does not use a SIM card or any batteries from outside, meaning there's nothing to steal and no sign of tampering once it's installed in your vehicle. It doesn't even use radio frequency signals or connect to your car's CAN data network which eliminates the need for wire cutting upon installation.
However, determined thieves could use other techniques to bypass Ghost Immobilisers. This can include jamming devices that block the communication between a vehicle and its ECU or spoofing techniques which send false signals to confuse a system. To protect yourself from these risks it is crucial to invest in anti-jamming devices and be on the lookout for indications of attempted tampering.

This is similar to the PIN code and can range from anywhere between 4 and 20 steps long, based on your personal preference. This makes it nearly impossible for service providers and thieves to figure out the code you've chosen.
Ghost CAN immobilisers guard vehicles from cloning, hacking and key theft by connecting directly to the vehicle's data network and preventing the engine from starting until an individual PIN code is entered before.
